The author drew the fol-lowing conclusions: the British Football Association macroscopically regulates football development through system deci-sion making and rational power division, and in the mean time, comprehensively manages and operates the FA Cup and the national team by relying on high quality manpower resources; the governance system mainly consisting of the FA, the premier league and clubs actively develops fundamental work, having formed such a nice atmosphere as all nationals par-ticipating in football, currently the biggest problem is that the British FA’s management power is ever increasingly re-stricted by the Premier League; for a long time, guided by the administrative department, the Chinese Football Association (CFA) boosted football development in China, and made certain achievements, however, due to complicated organization nature, unclear subject responsibility, and the lack of lasting supervision and evaluation mechanisms, its power shows the strong nature of administrative entrustment and agency, it failed to establish a perfected business governance system, and had a lots of misses in basic work; entering into the governance stage, the CFA should fully refer to British FA’s advanta-geous experience in configuring management power, boost governance abilities, practice social responsibilities, and solid-ify the foundation for Chinese football revitalization.
